okay no calm, kushy and monyet are great

they dominantly won china stage 2 like how edg usually do, plus rarga is genuinely cracked

you realise they still have good individuals other than zekken right? I think 8 is a good spot for them

heretics aren't even that reliant on tejo wym, they only use it on like icebox and lotus

rrq are too reliant on jemkin, i think teams that don't rely on one player will perform better
(not taking into consideration first seeds automatically making it to playoffs
might be a little predictable but yeah:

1. TH
2. G2
3. GENG
4. MIBR
5. XLG
6. FNC
7. PRX
8. SEN
9. RRQ
10. BLG
11. WOL

id put BBL behind RRQ and TL behind SEN

valid glazee

i thought asuna uses the glitchpop phantom

i thought asuna uses the glitchpop phantom

i know achievements arent everything but the people on the list shouldve at least won two international events or genuinely dominated during a period of time like yay or been extremely consistent like aspas

nah this is like TH vs EDG

kangkang carried the life out of edg to win champs

did u actually guess rrq, geng and prx or did u edit it... im going to trust u tho

LMFAO agreed (funny how we all have heretics flair)

in what world is mako consistently the best smokes player for 5 years, he was NEVER the best i promise you LMFAO
2020 - idfk
2021- chronicle
2022 - marved/pancada
2023 - boaster dont even deny it
2024 - karon or tenz

anyone but mako honestly LMFAO

bro knew LMFAO

he meant u fell for amy's rage bait lol

overrated: mada and lwk primmie but not as much
underrated: sociaBIEE, crashies, boonation, artzin

most iconic one is the guard 13-0 against 100T on ascent

no disrespect to the korean veteran, but mako shouldn't be here, he has yet to actually win any internationals and regardless of performance, thats important. also where is yay

i live for heretics but like, its leo bro... stage 1 emea 2024 leo second highest rating, 2023 tokyo leo second highest again, lock in 4th highest, champs 2023 leo second highest, 2023 emea league leo third highest.

okay it might seem like im glazing a little too hard but leo was genuinely one of the best players itw, obv he hasnt played in over a year i think so who knows know but don't disrespect the goat.

regardless, heretics are a better team overall and thats what matters, woot is an important component im not denying that

wsg

what rumours? unless its fns leaving nrg cannot be third

what if gambit never disbanded cuz of russia

what if EG actually paid their players and the roster stuck together

what if sacy and pancada never left LOUD after they won champs

0/8 toronto grandfinals will be both emea teams ez

are we talking most likely or favourites? lets just ignore the entire sentinels fanbase yeah...

let's be real here people, heretics are winning toronto, no i am not saying that because they are 5-0, im saying that because they are the best, they've been the best even in kickoff, they just didn't go to let liquid qualify because they haven't in years, and let t1 win bangkok so that stax and buzz could finally lift a trophy, now its our turn.

#BOONATION

heretics 3-1 liquid
not even close

always been a believer, riens drops 60

LETS GO HERETICS

#BOONATION

i would argue they got the easier group

im so big on spike, trust he can help the team so much, getting rid of by far their worst player (PxS) for their best player is gamechanging, just watch

also nrg and lev are just too shit i cant, the management of both orgs will lead to their downfalls (even further)

loud are getting virtyyyy

also what is this eg cope, they had all the stakes to win it and still choked, yay needed to win so he could settle his beef with crazyguy but still couldn't close out pearl

LMFAO no NRG

well they make champs LOL

its called hard anti-strat, trust me they are just better, youll see in stage 2

jinggg drops 60
PRX 2-1 DRX
map 1 fracture they lose 4-13
map 2 ascent win 13-10
map 3 split win 13-5

ez

now that stage 1 has concluded i think its pretty self-explanatory which teams are where

1. G2 (results + on paper the best, the professor been lacking lately tho)
2. SEN (plot armour + are just good)
3. MIBR (just so stacked in everything; aim + strats + aura (aspas))
4. KRU (they are good idk what happened)
5. EG (el diablo return)
6. 100T (actually decent just fix asuna)
7. C9 (lack of consistency)
8. LOUD (considering the roster changes they are making)
9. 2G (spikes coming i think?)
10. NRG (thank mada)
11. LEV (somany q's they got rid of demon1 n rossy but their remaining players are still decent)
12. FURIA (decent aim no brain)

MIBR could lwk be higher than sentinels i wouldn't have a problem with them swapping

TH (they will make it no doubt)
MIBR
PRX

kru make it to champs

why did everyone put boom win and paper rex run damn

https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/785a1cd2

yep i got absolutely cooked as well

was an OG for both series but i got so much shit for liking SAO back in the day holy

it would be funnier if paper rex make it to toronto, honestly same though im rooting for both teams

lwk same, agree w everything you said apart from vinny not being bad, his calls were extremely questionable..

forgetting free1ng and cortezia

bars

bros unc now

didn't mini leave because of personal issues?

LMFAO this is basically SEN vs G2 match scores, but cubert is G2

i think geng and heretics have the highest ceilings, edg fluked champs (ik im coping get over it)

prep team vs prep team, this is going to be cinema

regardless g2 are just way better individually and on paper, I really don't see them losing, but i want EG to make it to toronto for the yay vs crazyguy matchup

kamo snipe
